Interesting, guest talks of 7 year cycles, much different than anything I have heard, and he speaks of Sept-October ( November) 2017 I have felt this, but I did in 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011? we will see , I just feel, due to many things I am seeing and hearing from the lord, it still is Urgent and this simply confirms my time table, and again the 7 year cycle thing is spot on, listen. OK at 16 min hes starts to talk about Asia.

Yes a war, be it a war with N. Korea, or a ww3, we will see, but history repeats, and that cycle we have been in , only Gods grace has held many things off.

The war, it will be with Asia not Russia, have I stood by that, and currently it looks more and more as this will happen.

He speaks of the fall of Rome and how we are in the same place. I did a post on this exact topic. The Fall Of A Nation, Interesting post has ad few reads read that one after this, it all fits. He says a few times Terrorist in USA with mini nukes, not sure of that.

You tube Users words.

On the “War Cycle,” Renowned economist Charles Nenner, who is also an expert in both market and war cycles, says, “Wars come in cycles. It seems people have to have a certain amount of time so they forget how bad it was so they can start a new one. We talked about this a few years ago and said it’s not going to be the Middle East. It’s going to be China and the islands. In the aerospace industries in China, Japan, Vietnam and Korea, something is cooking over there. I still think the whole thing is coming from there. It’s just an accident that has to happen.”

I
posted this in late 2016, let me say it is now critical. in the past
month, I have been locked out off and o blocked fro my own websites,
my email, acting up, live mail 100%problems. Censuring, blocked, can
not sign in, page goes where it wants to, all kinds of wild error

amazing , this is the brick by brick taking away the free internet.
Please pray or me, the ministries, being locked out, emails to best
friends returned, a false email with my Pic and worse , wow. Its
game on, as well as it is a problem reaction-solution, as the
Internet cyber security on steroids, is being implemented and a lot
is because of the newest cyber attack that hit and still is going all
over.

Also,
stats being messed with why? I have no idea, this site and the
others in the same week fell from approx 800 reads a day to 10-20
serious and not a possibility.This has never been seen all sites , same day almost and now 10-20 people a day, it i not a reality and something beyond me-us, is at work and its pure evil, but the Holy will last till the end if time. I am not the only one dealing with

older post and what happened.

911
situation, soon much of this site, my others on blog spot will have
many, many times the UN will take down a posts get ready. I saw this,
warned of it and now it is on us. It was no conspiracy the internet

Still need help this month, so please do what you are lead, now this brother from M.O. St. -Note: A timely word, as the area had a car pile up yesterday due to a freak wind storm, and many were hurt in cars. I will be posting footage of the storm tonight and some FYI, some bad news, good news, and spiritual warfare. The vid will be posted around 1 am, or so.RE POST

It was a beautiful Spring morning, and my mother and I were on our way home from grocery shopping. We were a little over a mile away from home, when we came upon a car accident that I will never forget. I never stop at car accidents, but this time I felt very compelled to do so. As I pulled the car over to the shoulder to a stop, I said to my mother, “ I'll be right back, I'm going to see if I can help.”

As I walked up to the scene of the accident, I saw a twisted mass of metal that was once a blue minivan. As I made my way up closer, there were five or six people standing near the victim who was thrown at least fifty feet from his vehicle. There was a women leaning over the man on the ground saying in a shaky voice, “ honey, hang in there, the ambulance is coming soon, hang in there honey, hang in there.” Then I saw the man who will forever be etched upon my mind.

He was a mountain of a man with big arms, a huge chest, a shaved head, and a superman logo tattooed on his upper right arm. He was laying flat on his back, his right leg was twisted, and nearly torn off. His eyes were wide opened and completely glassed over. There was a trickle of blood running down from his mouth, and every five or six seconds his huge chest would heave, fighting for air. But what I remember the most was that when he would exhale that blood would spray up into the air, and fall back down onto his face.

There was nothing that any of us could do except wait for the ambulance. I got down on my knees in front of the others, and laid my hand on his broken body and said a short prayer. I said, “ Heavenly father, if it is your will, would you please touch this man and give him one more chance at life, in the name of Jesus I ask you, amen.” Then I heard an, “amen” from a women behind me. The whole scene was just surreal, and beyond anything I ever experienced in my entire life.

The struggle for life and death, heaven and hell, and all of eternity was taking place right before my eyes. While this was going on, I thought it interesting that the world did not stop for this poor man. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was brilliant blue, the birds were singing and a cool breeze was blowing. Finally the ambulance arrived and I moved out of the way as the paramedics began working on him. As I walked back to my car, I was almost sure that he was gone. At home after lunch, I walked around to the side of our house, which offers some privacy. I remember looking up at the blue sky and feeling tears roll down my face, thinking about what I had just witnessed, and I remember thank God that I was saved, and ready to meet the lord had that been me in the accident.

Almost two weeks later, I was driving by where the accident occurred, and someone had placed a cross at the scene where he had indeed died. I have wondered many things about this man, but out of all the things that I have wondered the most about that tragic event is, what what was going on in his mind just one minute before the accident? Was he thinking that good deed of changing an old gentleman’s tire that he had done recently now made him acceptable in the eyes of God? Was he thinking about buying his wife some roses, just to let her know he still cared? Was he singing and praising the lord, and thanking him for such a beautiful day? Had he just fallen in love, and could not get his new girlfriend out of his mind?

Was he rehearsing sporting statistics over and over again in his mind, so that he could impress his new friends down at the sports bar? Was he smiling thinking back to that wild get -away weekend of drinking and adultery- the one his wife thought was on an out of town business trip? Was he suffering from depression, and thinking no one cared for him? Was he thinking of his godly Christian parents and feeling shame and remorse for the way he was secretly living his life? Was he thinking about that preacher on the radio that had just convicted him of his sins, but he turned him off thinking to himself- “ I know that I'm not right with God, but I'll get right with Jesus tomorrow.”

Those six words, “ I'll get right with Jesus tomorrow,” have put untold millions in hell for eternity. 2 Corinthians 6:2 says, Behold now is the accepted time, behold now is the day of salvation. Hebrews 4:7 says, Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.

I have no idea what was really going on in the mind of the man that was killed right before he died, nor do I know his spiritual condition whether lost, saved, or backslidden. But you, reader are alive and still on the planet at this very moment in time.

If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior, will you please do so today? There is nothing more important in the entire wold, ask Him to come into your heart, and save you , and to forgive you of all your sins. If you are sincere, he will do it and it will be the greatest day of your life.

Thank-you My brother for that word, I must say, it was very, very hard for me to write with a dry eye, why? As last night my 46 year old brother in-law, Brian Crombie, my sisters husband, died of a sudden heart attck. In Yermo, in the same house me and my wife lived at when we were taking care of the same old man. The same house, all day I have been thinking, what was his last thought? He was a hard working, good man, a New England Pats fan 100%, he still talked like a good ole, N.E. Hard core. I said to myself, as he has had a hard time in Yermo, as I have, will I ever get out of this place, and when I do , it will be a pine box, the lord said, the place the ministry is at is our last stop, next flight is to glory, meaning I will die right in Yermo also. Sad.Hard to write, and my thoughts and prayers for his kids have been heavy on my mind, this was very hard to write, but thank -you

When
we say we are saved, what we mean is that we are Christians, we are
willing admitting a Belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. But
ask people why they believe they are saved and you will receive a
mixed bag of answers. And i would have to think that most of the
answers in that mixed bag would have to do with a answer pertaining
to something that the saved individual has done to show or to prove
that they are saved. But doing something does not make a person
saved, there is nothing that you could do...alongside from willing
accepting Jesus Christ as the Son of God, your and my Savior, and
knowing that He has taken our penalty for our sin, and our
condemnation on the Cross, at Calvary. And by doing so, by taking and
serving out our sentence, for the sin and pain and wrongdoing for all
sin, and yet that sin that is still yet to come. By this, and this
only is one saved. It is this Faith in this Belief that makes a
person saved, not by any works that any man could ever do. Remember
we are Saved by Faith plus nothing, also works does not produce
Faith, it is Faith that produces Works. !!!!!!!

Now
is the question will be asked, and also the answer provided, and
provided as always by the Bible, which we know to be the Word of God.
So the question is...what exactly is Faith? is answer is given
within the Scriptures, in the Bible, as we read (Hebrews Chapter 11
Verse 1 English Standard Version) "Now faith is
the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not
seen.” So Faith alone is a assurance or promise of things to come,
and these things which are hoped for, yet given by that which is not
seen. We have Faith in God, in Jesus Christ for that things which are
hoped for, but not seen. We do not need to see by any means to prove
to us anything, and that because our Faith in Him comforts in and
with His assurance of things to come, Amen. What a Great God we have
to know that all we have to do is Believe, and on those things not
seen by is, and this because we are sure that by Him it will be
given. But do we need this Faith to have fellowship with God ?

Yes
we do, and at all times, now we may stumble at times in our Christian
walk, but we repent, we confess and we get back up, never forsaking
our God. Is there Biblical prove that we need Faith? Yes and the
Bible gives us this answer in (Hebrews Chapter 11 Verse 6 English
Standard Version) “And without faith it is impossible to please
him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists
and that he rewards those who seek him.” Faith is so strong through
Jesus Christ, that we even see that it is proclaimed throughout the
world. We know this because even today we hear of God given human
spoken willing testimonies that tell us the Belief of God. Consider
Egypt, which is a very prominent Muslim area, we still hear of
Christian testimonies there. Also Africa, we we see has a very large
Muslim base, has very outspoken Christian belief. And we still notice
that even in the very hard hit areas like China, who has Christian
testimonies and belief there, when under extreme persecution as they
are, the Church does not fail, on the contrary it grows. But does the
Bible speak of Faith in the world? Yes, as we read in (Romans Chapter
1 Verse 8 English Standard Version) “First, I thank my God through
Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all
the world.”

But
what about proof, as the old saying says “proof is in the pudding”
We as humans need to know that this is true, and that besides having
another human telling you so. So how do we know that we are Saved by
Faith plus nothing? Does the Bible tell us, because we know that the
Bible is the Word of God, and that being our proof. Yes the Bible
tells us this in (Ephesians Chapter 2 Verses 8 And 9 English Standard
Version) “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this
is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works,
so that no one may boast.” How do we know without a doubt that if
we try to do “works” that we will not be saved? What if I save a
baby from a disaster or help a little old lady? Wont this make me
saved? The answer is no, and the Bible says this, any on that day of
Judgment the Lord will have much to say to those who believe that
works makes you saved. The Bible gives us the answer in (Matthew
Chapter 7 Verses 21 Through 23 English Standard Version) "Not
everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of
heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in
your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works
in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you;
depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.”

You
see we can work all we want, but we are only saved by Faith. This we
must remember, that through our Faith in God that the Gospel bear
Fruit and increases, this we read in (Colossians Chapter 1 Verses 3
Through 6 English Standard Version) “We always thank God, the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, since we heard
of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all
the saints, because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this
you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel, which has
come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and
increasing—as it also does among you, since the day you heard it
and understood the grace of God in truth.”

Is
it truly possible to have this Faith? Yes, we have seen and heard the
testimonies of others that prove this, but does the Bible tell us?
Yes, and what does it say? We look to (Philippians Chapter 4 Verse 13
King James Version) “I can do all things through Christ which
strengtheneth me.” Remember that Faith grows in you through the One
that gives it, and that One is Jesus Christ. Let now the Faith of
Jesus grow within you, allowing it to reach maturity and it is at
this point that it will bear Fruit, and this not only for
you.......but for others also. With Jesus, through Jesus, for Jesus,
by Grace through Faith...plus nothing. Our Great Father in Heaven,
let your Words be a Light to the path, and a lamp to the feet of
those who move along your Christian walk, help us not to turn to the
left or the right, but to keep on the path of the Lord, till the day
of Redemption is at hand. (Psalm Chapter 119 Verse 105) “Thy word
is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” (Proverbs
Chapter 4 Verse 27) “Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:
remove thy foot from evil.”

This is important, as
many are simple, head in sand Christians , or not bible Christians at
all, they claim to be christian, and yet do not read the bible. Many
post modern churches today, if you were to visit one and you carried
your bible into the service, you would be the only one with a bible
in hand. It is set up this way. If there are any bible verses, they
are given on a screen with a multi media presentation, you
may say, that seems harmless, IT IS NOT why? It is a work of the
Devil to get people deceived to go in a so called Church service
without their bible, this in turn makes the simple
christian think, " If I do not take my bible to my Church why
read it at home'.

You can see video after
video of these post modern camp leaders say, 'The bible is an out
dated book, its old and not relevant'. That is what is spreading all
over the world, it may be more dangerous than any other movement in
our day, it is the true apostate church, these simple ones siting in
deception, will be first in line to take the mark of the beast and
turn against bible believing Christians that say, Jesus Christ is the
only way to heaven. The post modern camp, and now the Word of Faith
camp leaders are all calling for a One World Church.

This is dangerous
because they take the bible, the living , breathing, revelation of
God to man, and make it no better then 'Gone With The Wind'. A Bible
-less so called Christian, is a deceived Christian, we use the word
to discern a doctrine, a word, a sermon, we also have spiritual
discernment, and you can't have spiritual discernment if you do not
have bible discernment.

This is literally a
life and death situation. Jesus is the ONLY way to heaven and the
bible is the lords living book of truth, doctrine, comfort, hope,
long-suffering, faith, trust,ect.

Worse of all, this has
already caused many to be hell bound, and not saved,( born again).
You must be born again, or you do not go to heaven, it's eternity of
a soul at stake, next it is life and death, in matters of what is
coming down right now.

Pro 22:3 A prudent
man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass
on, and are punished.

Pro 27:12 A prudent
man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass
on, and are punished.

Note: I have done a
couple messages on these two verses, so I will consolidate the
meaning.

A true Christian, A
Prudent Christian Hides? Look first at the word Prudent in Websters
1st ed. Dictionary;

Prudent

PRU'DENT,
a. Cautious; circumspect; practically wise; careful of the
consequences of enterprises, measures or actions; cautious not to act
when the end is of doubtful utility, or probably impracticable.

Why do we have the
same proverb in two places? It is the lord driving home this is
important and dual witness by the word of the lord itself.

What happens to the
simple in this verse?

How is it that the
prudent, or wise, foresee, and the simple see nothing, and are blind?

The bible is missing,
the fear of God is unknown. The fear of Jehovah is the very start of
knowledge, without knowledge of the bible you can not have wisdom,
wisdom is applying the bible truths.

Not taking a bible to
Church , not reading the bible for yourself- while we can, is
foolish, it will be a banned book, now we are free to read it, and
most do not. This is a trick of the evil one.

Eliminate the bible,
eliminate knowledge, eliminate wisdom, (applying knowledge) and thus
no bible foundation, and millions are in man made doctrinal
deception. It all ties together.

Spiritual death, and
death by foolish, head in sand , non believers.

The
bible is the HOLY word of the lord, complete in doctrine, with no new
doctrine needed. The bible is the complete revelation to man from
God, all else, spiritual gifts, books, sermons etc. none are inherit,
but the word of the lord, the holy bible Gen. to Revelations.

Why has country after
country, banned the bible? The communists banned it, burned it.

The King burned
Jeremiahs prophecy-So it was written again. Paul said, while in
prison, in the Prison Epistles, “ I may be bound , but the word is
not bound'. It can't be, no matter how much evil tries to rid the
world of true Christians and the bible, it will never happen, we read
in Revelations, great persecution happens, but people are still
saved( that means the Holy Spirit will be in the tribulation and not
taken out as the pre tribers think, you can not get saved apart
from the Holy Spirits convection, this is key to understanding
that false doctrine). People will still have bibles, or portions of
it, no one will ever wipe true bible
believing Christianity off the map, this is the delusional dream of
the NWO, but it reader will never be. In history we read,
when people were martyred for faith in Jesus Christ, a thousand more
took their place.

I
shout from the wilderness, 'embrace your bible, get to know it,
memorize portions now, stand on it, weep with it, find comfort and
instruction for your soul in the holy bible'.

I shout, read, study,
memorize, and bury copies literally, and bury the word in your heart,
this is the word of the lord.

Oh! reader, I pray your
getting this deep inside of you. I know this warning, this message,
is from the lord. Heed and get ready to Bleed if needed.

Repent of sin, confess
and believe in your heart, that Jesus Christ is the only way, truth
and life, He alone saves, He alone is King of Kings and Lord of
Lords.

A
crisis is not coming. It is already here, and it will be as defining
a moment in the history of the United States as the Great Depression,
World War II, or the American Civil War — that is, if you believe
in an interesting theory laid out in a book called “The Fourth
Turning: What Cycles of History Tell Us About America’s Next
Rendezvous With Destiny.”

In
this book published in 1997, authors William Strauss and Neil Howe
make the argument that our ideas about the nature of history, linear
time, and progress are illusory, and that if we want a more accurate
concept on the way that history unfolds, we would do well to study
the Ancient Greek concept of cyclical time. This concept views
national and global historical phenomenon not as randomly occurring
events, or the linear march of historical “progress,” but instead
sees them as recurring archetypes placed into a larger tapestry of a
greater repeating historical cycle.

The
Fourth Turning: Destruction is Coming

According
to Strauss and Howe, the relative geographic and historical isolation
of the United States provides a unique opportunity to view this
historical cycle unfold regularly and predictably every 80 years.

This
80-year cycle can be divided into four stages or seasons, each
lasting approximately twenty years:

WWII
was a part of the Fourth Turning

Immediately
following WWII began the time of the “First Turning.”

1.
High– This initial stage occurs immediately following a period of
crisis. The High is characterized by strong institutions, a sense of
collective destiny, and a weakness of individuality. The most recent
example of this would be the period of prosperity and conformity in
the U.S. immediately following the conclusion of World War II.

2.
Awakening- The second stage, or turning, is a period of questioning
established values and asserting one’s independence from
established norms and morals, be they spiritual or political. This
stage may be seen as a rebellion of the previous era’s emphasis on
material wealth and conformity. The 1960’s, with the psychedelic
revolution, anti-war protests, Civil Rights marches, and New Age
spiritual movements can be seen as recent characteristics of this
second stage, as well as Reaganomics and the mid-1980s Wall Street
ethos.

Social
Justice is a symptom leading into the Fourth Turning

“Justice
for Mike Brown” and other social justice protests are symptoms of
the “Third Turning.” [Editorial credit: Rena Schild /

3.
Unraveling- The emphasis on autonomy and the questioning of
spiritual, political, and individual authority in the Awakening stage
eventually destabilizes society, leading to the Third Turning, in
which institutions are weak and untrusted while the subjective
experience of the individual is emphasized. This stage can be thought
of as the inverse of the initial High stage, where collective destiny
is replaced by atomization. A recent symptom of this stage would be
the culture wars, corporate malfeasance, a lack of faith in
government, and political correctness.

4.
Crisis- In the Fourth Turning, a destabilizing event, usually
involving warfare, leads to the destruction and reconstruction of
institutions of power. In the face of destruction, Americans are
forced to unite and forge a vision to restructure a disrupted
society. This fourth stage can be seen as the inverse of the
Awakening stage, and the authors cite World War II as the defining
event of the most recent period of Crisis.

Destruction
and war are symptoms of the “Fourth Turning.”

Strauss
and Howe predicted that the next Crisis period that the US would face
would happen sometime around 2005 and end around 2025. Anyone who has
been paying attention over the last decade would have a difficult
time refuting this. The financial crisis of 2008 threw the planet
into discord, and we are now just beginning to see some of the
political ramifications of this.

Much
of the establishment press have made note of Steve Bannon’s
interest in this book, striking a fearful and disturbing tone
inferring that Bannon wishes to somehow ‘bring about’ this Fourth
Turning. If you take the ideas of cyclical time seriously, one can no
more accelerate or delay the arrival of these repeating natural
events than one could delay winter or somehow lengthen summertime.

The
Crisis is here, and Trump, as well as the rest of the western
rebellion against the destabilizing forces of globalism are symptoms
of the crisis as well as the cure to it.

Buckle
up, because I’ve got a feeling that the coming decade is going to
get pretty bumpy.

http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/decline.htmlOur problem is that we don't really learn from history. George Santayana said that "those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it." The philosopher Hegel said, "What experience and history teach us is this: that people and government never have learned anything from history or acted on principles deduced from it." Or as Winston Churchill said, "The one thing we have learned from history is that we don't learn from history."

The refrains that are often heard are: "It can't happen here," or "Our country is different." But the reality is that nations are born and die just like individuals. Their longevity may exceed the average person's lifespan. But the reality is that nations also die.

History has shown that the average age of the great civilizations is around two hundred years. Countries like Great Britain exceed the average while other countries like the United States are just now reaching the average age.

Each of the great civilizations in the world passed through a series of stages from their birth to their decline to their death. Historians have listed these in ten stages.

The first stage moves from bondage to spiritual faith. The second from spiritual faith to great courage. The third stage moves from great courage to liberty. The fourth stage moves from liberty to abundance. The fifth stage moves from abundance to selfishness. The sixth stage moves from selfishness to complacency. The seventh stage moves from complacency to apathy. The eighth stage moves from apathy to moral decay. The ninth stage moves from moral decay to dependence. And the tenth and last stage moves from dependence to bondage.

These are the ten stages through which the great civilizations have gone. Notice the progression from bondage to liberty back to bondage. The first generation throws off the shackles of bondage only to have a later generation through apathy and indifference allow itself to once again be enslaved.

This is the direction this and every other country is headed. The book of Judges shows that the nation of Israel passed through these same stages. And this country will do the same unless revival and reformation break out and reverse the inexorable decline of this nation.

But apart from God's intervention, nations will decline and eventually pass off the scene. Much of the Old Testament records the history of the nation of Israel. It passed through these same stages and so will every country in the world.

As Christians we must recognize that nations will rise and fall just as individuals will be born and die. Our civilization will not last indefinitely, but will eventually pass off the scene. Only God's Word endures forever. We should not put our trust in the things of this world for they are destined for destruction. Instead, we should put our faith in God and His word.

The Decline of the Family

Nations most often fall from within, and this fall is usually due to a decline in the moral and spiritual values in the family. As families go, so goes a nation.

This has been the main premise of thinkers from British historian J. D. Unwin to Russian sociologist Pitirim Sorokin who have studied civilizations that have collapsed. In his book Our Dance Has Turned to Death, Carl Wilson identifies the common pattern of family decline in ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. Notice how these seven stages parallel what is happening in our nation today. In the first stage, men ceased to lead their families in worship. Spiritual and moral development became secondary. Their view of God became naturalistic, mathematical, and mechanical.

In the second stage, men selfishly neglected care of their wives and children to pursue material wealth, political and military power, and cultural development. Material values began to dominate thought, and the man began to exalt his own role as an individual. The third stage involved a change in men's sexual values. Men who were preoccupied with business or war either neglected their wives sexually or became involved with lower-class women or with homosexuality. Ultimately, a double standard of morality developed. The fourth stage affected women. The role of women at home and with children lost value and status. Women were neglected and their roles devalued. Soon they revolted to gain access to material wealth and also freedom for sex outside marriage. Women also began to minimize having sex relations to conceive children, and the emphasis became sex for pleasure. Marriage laws were changed to make divorce easy.

In the fifth stage, husbands and wives competed against each other for money, home leadership, and the affection of their children. This resulted in hostility and frustration and possible homosexuality in the children. Many marriages ended in separation and divorce.

Many children were unwanted, aborted, abandoned, molested, and undisciplined. The more undisciplined children became, the more social pressure there was not to have children. The breakdown of the home produced anarchy.

In the sixth stage, selfish individualism grew and carried over into society, fragmenting it into smaller and smaller group loyalties. The nation was thus weakened by internal conflict. The decrease in the birthrate produced an older population that had less ability to defend itself and less will to do so, making the nation more vulnerable to its enemies.

Finally, unbelief in God became more complete, parental authority diminished, and ethical and moral principles disappeared, affecting the economy and government. Thus, by internal weakness and fragmentation the societies came apart. There was no way to save them except by a dictator who arose from within or by barbarians who invaded from without.

Although this is an ancient pattern of decline found in Greece and Rome, it is relevant today. Families are the foundation of a nation. When the family crumbles, the nation falls because nations are built upon family units. They are the true driving social force. A nation will not be strong unless the family is strong. That was true in the ancient world and it is true today.

Social commentator Michael Novak, writing on the importance of the family, said:

One unforgettable law has been learned through all the disasters and injustices of the last thousand years: If things go well with the family, life is worth living; when the family falters, life falls apart.

The Decline of Values

There are many factors in the decline of a nation. Certainly a major one is the breakdown of the family. But another potent but less perceptible force is the power of ideas.

False ideas are bringing about the decline of western culture. Carl F. H. Henry, in his book Twilight of a Great Civilization, says:

There is a new barbarism. This barbarism has embraced a new pagan mentality . . . not simply rejecting the legacy of the West, but embracing a new pagan mentality where there is no fixed truth.

Today we live in a world where biblical absolutes are ignored, and unless we return to these biblical truths, our nation will continue to decline.

To understand how we have arrived at this appalling situation, we need to go back a century and look at the influence of five intellectual leaders who still profoundly affect the modern world. The first person is Charles Darwin (1809-1882). In 1859 he published The Origin of Species and later published The Descent of Man. His writings blurred the distinction between humans and animals since he taught that we are merely part of an evolutionary progression from lower forms of life. Darwinism, as it came to be called, not only affected the field of biology, but became the foundation for the fields of anthropology, sociology, and psychology.

The second person is Karl Marx (1818-1883). He and Friedrich Engels published the Communist Manifesto around 1850, and Marx devoted his life to writing about the demise of capitalism and coming of communism. He understood the importance of ideas. Marx once wrote: "Give me twenty-six lead soldiers and I will conquer the world." The twenty-six lead soldiers are the keys on a typewriter. The pervasive influence of communism in the world today is testimony to the truthfulness of his statement.

The third person is Julius Wellhausen (1844-1918). Although he may not be as well known as the other two men mentioned, his influence was just as profound. He was a German Bible scholar whose theory on the dating of the Pentateuch completely transformed Old Testament studies.

Wellhausen argued that the early books of the Bible were not put together by Moses but were gathered together many centuries later by several different men called redactors who wove various strands together. He and his disciples established an anti-supernatural approach to the scriptures which is influential in most denominational seminaries today.

The fourth person is Sigmund Freud (1856-1939). He merely took the logical implications of what Darwin was doing in biology and applied them to what today is known as psychology and psychiatry. Freud argued that humans are basically autonomous and therefore do not need to know God. Instead, we need to know and understand ourselves since our problems stem from those secret things that have evolved in our lives from our past.

A fifth person is John Dewey (1859-1952). He is the founder of modern education and published his first work, The School and Society, in 1899. John Dewey was also one of the co-signers of the Humanist Manifesto in 1933.

Dewey, like Darwin and Freud, believed that humans are autonomous. They don't need to have an authority above them but can evolve their our own system of education. Thus the very foundation of modern education is anti-supernatural.

Ideas have consequences, and false ideas can bring down a nation. The theories of these five men are having devastating consequences in our nation and world. Unless we return to biblical absolutes, our nation will continue its decline.

Spiritual Decline

The decline and fall of nations is usually due to internal factors rather than external threats. Even though some may have fallen to barbarians, their demise ultimately came because of moral and spiritual weakness which manifested itself as military weakness. Historians have listed the stages in the decline of a nation. These should not be too surprising to any student of the Old Testament. The stages of decline parallel the stages through which the nation of Israel passed.

But neither should they surprise a student of the New Testament. In the opening chapter of the Apostle Paul's letter to the church in Rome, he traces a similar progression. In fact, Romans 1 shows the decline of a civilization from a societal perspective. Looking at the Hellenistic world of his time, he reflects on the progression of sin in a nation.

The first stage is when people turn from God to idolatry. Although God has revealed Himself in nature to all men so that they are without excuse, they nevertheless worship the creation instead of the Creator. This is idolatry. In the past, this took the form of actual idol worship. In our day, it takes the form of the worship of money or the worship of self. In either case, it is idolatry. A further example of this is a general lack of thankfulness. Although they have been prospered by God, they are ungrateful. And when they are no longer looking to God for wisdom and guidance, they become vain and futile and empty in their imaginations. They no longer honor God, so their foolish hearts become darkened. In professing to be wise, they have become fools.

The second stage is when men and women exchange their natural use of sex for unnatural uses. Here the Apostle Paul says those four sobering words, "God gave them over." In a society where lust- driven sensuality and sexual perversion dominate, God gives them over to their degrading passions and unnatural desires. The third stage is anarchy. Once a society has rejected God's revelation, it is on its own. Moral and social anarchy is the natural result. At this point God has given the sinners over to a depraved mind and so they do things which are not proper. This results in a society which is without understanding,untrustworthy, unloving, and unmerciful.

The final stage is judgment. God's judgment rightly falls upon those who practice idolatry and immorality. Certainly an eternal judgment awaits those who are guilty, but a social judgment occurs when God gives a nation over to its sinful practices.

Notice that this progression is not unique to the Hellenistic world the Apostle Paul was living in. The progression from idolatry to sexual perversion to anarchy to judgment is found throughout history.

In the times of Noah and Lot, there was the idolatry of greed, there was sexual perversion and promiscuity, there was anarchy and violence, and finally there was judgment. Throughout the history of the nation of Israel there was idolatry, sexual perversion, anarchy (in which each person did what was right in his own eyes), and finally judgment.

This progression happened throughout the Bible and to Greece, to Persia, to Babylon, and to Rome. And if it happened to these nations, then it can happen today.Unless we return to God's principles, decline and destruction are inevitable.

Even the wise are considered foolish to God-Our lord laughs at the proud, these people want 90% of you and me dead. Agenda 21. I laughed when I read this, Microsoft Giant, is not God, his wisdom failed, God is in full control, not man, not the darkness.One unknown true Christian and a hand full of seeds is all that is needed by God, someone willing to go and plant for our lord.

The Global Seed Vault, also popularly known as the Doomsday Vault, which has been specifically built to secure a million packets of the world's most precious seeds from all natural and man-made calamities, was flooded by melting ice from Arctic.

Buried under a deep mountain the Arctic Circle and situated in the Arctic Svalbard archipelago between mainland Norway and the North Pole, the vault is a lifeline for humanity if any catastrophe hits Earth. But climate change reaction has been so strong that parts of the facility near its entrance have been flooded by melting permafrost.

No seed deposit has been harmed due to the recent flooding as water did not reach the inner chambers of the vault and seeds have been kept in moisture control packets. Scientists however, say they never envisaged this would happen, that too so quickly.

"It was not in our plans to think that the permafrost would not be there and that it would experience extreme weather like that," Hege Njaa Aschim, from the Norwegian government, which owns the vault and is responsible for its maintenance, told the Guardian. "The water ran into the start of the vault's tunnel, then froze - it was like a glacier when you went in," he added.

The ice has been chipped out, but the vault is now being monitored more closely.

Cary Fowler, who helped create the seed vault, said flooding would not be the right term to use as melting ice in summers always results in permafrost melts. Because the seed vault is uphill from the entrance it would take much, much more water to overwhelm the seeds but the large amount of meltwater this season was unexpected.

"There's been water intrusion at the front of the tunnel every single year," Fowler told Popular Science. "But they need to study where the water is coming in and the amounts to figure out what the situation is....This whole planet is warming, and that includes Svalbard."

Climate change, it is real, but it is not man made. The Earth has had dramatic changes like this and it was not beacuse of Mankind- ever.

Herbs , just look up
herbs for depression there are many, try some until you find out what
works for you. Not all herbs work for all people, each one is
different and it may take trying a few and finding the right dosage
for you until it helps. (SAD), I have said, light therapy, this is a
must, sit under a bright light 20 min a day, insomnia , depression is
gone, just by light therapy, if it is (SAD) for major depression, it
is both Physiological, physical, and spiritual.

In this message I will
deal with the spiritual aspect.

There is a war for your
mind, demons want to mess with your head, I have posted enough on
Spiritual warfare, so this is different.

Prayer, study of the
word, and esp. helping others, helping others is not only a Christian
duty and our call, but I have seen time and again, when a person is
really down, going out and helping someone, visit the sick, give,
help, you will soon see you start to forget your own problems, this
beloved works as well as anything one can do.

The other thing is YOU,
This is about YOU, what do YOU do to help yourself , other than
helping others.?

My 'go to' verse’s
any time I am down, thinking negative is the well known portion of
Philip Ch 4. Right thinking.

Php 4:6 Be careful(
Anxious ) for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication
with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Php 4:7 And the peace
of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and
minds through Christ Jesus.

Php 4:8 Finally,
brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever
things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be
any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Php 4:9 Those things,
which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me,
do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

In times of great
stress, perplexity and yes deep depression, it is hard at times to
read the bible, at times when you do it seems like its just in
another language, it is not getting through, this can be overcome,
and it will pass in time. Take just the Philp Ch 4 portion and read
it again and again, if that is all you can read, get it deep inside
you, and in time it will help.

The best prayer when in
depression, anxiety, perplexity, disrepair, is. 'HELP! HELP ME LORD'.

There are times when
that is all you can say, I have been there, and it still is heard in
heaven and still gets results, do not over look a simple cry for
help, it will come.

Prayer, the word, esp.
Helping others, herbs, supplements all together can bring you, in
time out of this storm of depression, try it, it works. I have seen
over the years helping people with anxiety, depression, I have found
by far the best supplement is not an herb. It is B-Complex and a
combination of Calcium, magnesium, Zinc and 20 min of light. This
alone, and no herb has done wonders, but there are great herbs you
can take.

Wilkerson is gone now, and it is easy to forget. But the fact is,there were often many in the modern Charismatic movement whobasically opposed all that David Wilkerson stood for. They describedhim as a "Doom and Gloom" merchant - always warning of whatwas coming and calling the nation and the church to REPENTANCE.

I received an email from some U.S friends awhile ago who hadjust gone back to a Pentecostal church after some years. Theytold me, "If I bring up David Wilkerson, they all get a hateful,angry look on their face." Isn't that terribly sad.

Even though David Wilkerson was the one man who consistentlywarned America of cataclysms just like the ones we have seen,he was still denigrated. Even though he was proved right, still theydetested him! I think it is because his major message was"REPENT". And he didn't pussy-foot around like a lot of theseother so-called "prophets".

When the "God Wants You Rich" prosperity message began tospread, David was one of the few leaders who publicly refuted itand called the people to repent from the "love of money". Manyhated him for that. Especially because he is so direct andup-front.

And when the 'Toronto Blessing' came along, with churches fullof the most weird and often ugly behaviour - he called it like itwas. He was one of the few (if any) Pentecostal leaders whoactually stood up publicly and refuted this new 'spirit' that wasinvading the church. You can imagine how despised he wasfor that.

There is a 'Prophetic' movement in the world today that is inmy opinion very far removed from the word 'Prophet'. It sellstruckloads of books and holds untold conferences, but at theend of the day it is a mealy-mouthed travesty of the word'Prophetic'. It retains its popularity because it is almost always"positive" and up-lifting. The voice of an Amos or Jeremiah israrely (if ever) heard in its ranks - let alone a "John the Baptist".It is almost never blunt or confrontational - especially about sin.

A lot of this movement has a chronic obsession with the 'religiousspirit'. Everywhere these people look all they can see are religiousspirits of legalism, pharisaism, etc. Thus they are always talkingabout "grace, grace, grace". The words "Sin, Righteousnessand Judgement" are almost a horror to them, because they areso fearful of being 'religious'. And thus when they come acrossa prophet who actually preaches on Sin, Righteousness andJudgement (-which are the very things Jesus said His Spiritwould CONVICT of), they reject him. Every true prophet that Iknow of down through history has been a 'Sin, Righteousnessand Judgement' preacher. So has every true Revivalist. (Finney,Wesley, Whitfield, Edwards, etc). It is part of the job description!

We have invented a new meaning for the term 'Prophetic' inour day that is far below the standard of the Bible. And farbelow the standard that must be in place to see a true Revival.I think it was God's spokesman Ezekiel who coined the term"pillow prophets". That is the last thing that America needs inher hour of crisis. What is needed are voices who truly tell it likeit is - who WARN the people, no matter what the cost. -A 'cleartrumpet sound'.

David Wilkerson was just such a voice. And he was almost a'lone' voice - though thank God he was widely heard. I believeGod placed him in New York deliberately - the city thatcombines world political power with world financial power andworld media power. David was "God's man" in that city - I trulybelieve this. And if he said that God's message to Americathrough these events was "REPENT" then personally I wouldbelieve him rather than any mealy-mouthed 'prophet' who saidotherwise.

David hated sin and deception so much, and loved God andthe people so much, that he could not stand to be silent whenGod's heart-truths were being trampled underfoot. That is themark of a true prophet. He will be sorely missed.

Blessings to all,

Andrew Strom.

The lord said, 'say what you have to say, do what you have to do NOW', so I am. Been working out doors and in doors making ready what I can.

This message was posted back in 2012, how times flies, as I was thinking about Pentecost Sunday, this year it is in June 4, 2017. I was thinking about past Pentecost Day things, always amazing and coming soon, so this message I saw posted, is right where I was so I re- post it today.

In the Jewish ritual, the Psalm is used at Pentecost, the Anniversary of the Giving of the Law, and the Feast of Finished Harvest.... The remarkable character of the Psalm is indicated by the fact that there are no fewer than thirteen words in it which are not found elsewhere. The Pentecostal Gilt of Tongues seems needed for its full exposition. - William Kay

Psa 68:1 For the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a song. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; Let them also that hate him flee before him.

Psa 68:2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

Psa 68:3 But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God: Yea, let them rejoice with gladness.

Psa 68:4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.

Psa 68:5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, Is God in his holy habitation.

Psa 68:6 God setteth the solitary in families: He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

Psa 68:7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah.

Psa 68:8 The earth trembled, The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God: Yon Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

Psa 68:33 To him that rideth upon the heaven of heavens, which are of old; Lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.

Psa 68:34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: His excellency is over Israel, And his strength is in the skies.

Psa 68:35 O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: The God of Israel, he giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

As I was reading this ps. and studying it, I was overcome by the many revelations contained in it. It is filled with practical applications. The fact the Jews read, sang This Ps. On the feast of Pentecost gives it a more spiritual meaning, as in the N.T. It in part was fulfilled.

Spurgen says so many grand things a bought the psalm I will defer to his words in this post as I could not say it any better. What a mighty Lord we serve. It contains much comfort, hope and revelation as you will see. At The end I will share some ending words about revival and spiritual warfare.

Spurgen;

Psalms 68 Title. - To the Chief Musician, a Psalm or Song of David. - We have already said enough Upon this title when dealing with Psa_65:1-13 and 66. The present is obviously a gong to besting at the removal of the ark; and in all probability was rehearsed when David conducted it with holy joy from the house Obed-edom to the prepared place on Mount Zion. It is a most soul stirring hymn. The first verses were often the battle-song of the Covenanters and Ironsides; and the whole Psalm fitly pictures the way of the Lord Jesus among his saints, and his ascent to glory. The Psalm is at once surpassingly excellent and difficult. Its darkness in some stanzas is utterly impenetrable. Well does a German critic speak of it as a Titan very hard to master. Our slender scholarship has utterly failed us, and we have had to follow a surer Guide. We trust our thoughts may not however prove unprofitable.

Division. - With the words of the Psa_68:1-2 the ark is uplifted, and the procession begins to move. In Psa_68:3-6, the godly in the assembly are exhorted to commence their joyous songs, and arguments are adduced to help their joy. Then the glorious march of Jehovah in the wilderness is sung: Psa_68:7-10, and his victories in war are celebrated in Psa_68:11-14. The joyous shouts are louder as Zion Comes in sight, and the ark is borne up the hill: Psa_68:15-19. On the summit of the mount the priests sing a hymn concerning the Lord's goodness and justice; the safety of his friends, and ruin of his foes; Psa_68:20-23. Meanwhile the procession is described as it winds up the hill; Psa_68:24-27. The poet anticipates a time of wider conquest, Psa_68:28-31 : and concludes with a noble burst of song unto Jehovah.

Psa_68:1, Psa_68:2. - First. The church of God ever had, and will have, enemies and haters; for against these doth the Psalmist arm himself and the church with this prayer.

Secondly. The church's enemies are God's enemies; they that hate the church, hate God. “Thine enemies, them that hate thee.”Thirdly. God sometimes seems to sleep or lie still, and let these enemies and haters do what they will for a season. This, also, is implied: he to whom we say, “Arise,” is either asleep or lies still.

Fourthly. There is a time when God will arise.

Fifthly. God's rising time is the enemies' scattering time, his haters' flying time.

Sixthly. It is the duty of God's people to pray him up when he seems to be down, and to exalt him in their praises when he doth arise to their rescue and redemption;

Psa_68:1-3. - Prayer for the Second Advent.

Psa_68:4. -I. The name that inspires the song: “Jah.”1. Self-existent.2. Immutable.3. Eternal.

II. The song inspired by that name.1. Of exultation.2. Of confidence.3. Of joy. - R. R.

Psa_68:6. - Comparison of churches to families.

Psa_68:7, Psa_68:8. -I. God has his seasons for delivering his people from their troubles “When thou,” etc.II. His deliverance is complete: “The earth shook.” etc.; all things gave way before him.III. The deliverance is greater for the delay.

Psa_68:9. -I. God's mercy compared to a shower.

1. It is direct from heaven; not through priests.2. It is pure and unmixed.3. No one has a monopoly of it.4. There is no substitute for it.5. It is sovereignly dispensed, as to(1) time;(2) place;(3) manner; and(4) measure.6. It works efficiently. Isa_60:10.7. Prayer can get it.

Note what mighty words an mat we all heed these wise words, real deep stuff and full of revelation

II. There are seasons when these showers fall.

1. In the house of God.2. In the means of grace.3. In prayer.4. In affliction.5. When saints are weary(1) through working;(2) through sickness;(3) through non-success.

6. By the Holy Spirit refreshing the heart.

Note We as saints do get weary, in working, sickness and by non-success, but note, the Holy Spirit Refreshes the heart, He is our comforter.

Psa_68:10 (second clause). - Special goodness, for a special people, specially prepared.Psa_68:10 (second clause). - It is spoken in reference to the “poor,” because,

I. They are the larger mass of mankind; and whatever pride may think, in the eye of reason, policy, and revelation, by far the most important, useful, and necessary part.

II. They would be more peculiarly affected by deficiency.

To encourage those in humble and trying life to depend upon him.

Its application.

1. To penitence and pardon.2. To depravity and regeneration.3. To affliction and recovery.4. To desertion and consolation.5. To death and glory.

When? In answer to his people's faith and prayer.

How?

1. Without noise, gently: as the fall of snow.2. Without human aid as untrodden snow.3. Without violence: “all bloodless lay the untrodden snow.”

At Sinai demanded obedience, in Zion bestows gifts. In Sinai spoke terror, in Zion receives gifts for the rebellious.

In Sinai appeared for a short season, in Zion dwells for ever. - G. R.

Psa_68:19. -I. The load of benefits.II. The load of obligation.III. The load of praise due in return.

Psa_68:19. -I. Salvation is not to be forgotten in the midst of daily mercies.II. Daily mercies are not to be forgotten in the enjoyment of salvation. -

Psa_68:30, Psa_68:31. -

I. Hindrances to the progress of divine truth.

1. Idolatry. Worship of the crocodile - “beasts of the reeds,” (70) - of bulls and calves, as in Egypt.2. Covetousness.3. War.

Idolatry, Covetousness, War, these are three good solid reasons in this ps. why America and the apostates are under Judgment.

The means for their removal. Prayer and the divine “rebuke.” “Scatter thou,” etc.

Today I was feeling the battle, the fiery darts; I simply put on the amour of the lord, triple thick and said. Demons the lord rebuke you get out, as the proper method of rebuking. I taught on this before, see Jude for my point. And that post proper biblical rebuking of the devil, a needful study.

I have been under revival, but revival also stirs the hornets nest, the devil hates when the lords people praise in the storms of life, in hardships, and the glory falls, right after sometimes, I mean right after, a praise time and the presence of Pentecost, you can find your self tempted, harassed, oppressed and the like, spiritual warfare never ends until we are in glory. A revival, an outpouring does many wonderful things, but it does not exempt the saint from much prayer, and the need to still be on your watching post against the scams of the enemy, and your flesh.

This has been a battle and a revival, a true revival will have both in it, if not, you are not disrupting Satan’s kingdom and plan, he marvels at the fact many remnant ones in the power of Pentecost have not crumbled, we have the power of the lord to match every assault, we are given heavenly weapons , may we use them today as we are blessed and in battle at the same time. It is a wonder; it is a fact, and so put on your holy armor and battle on, in the power and presence of our king.

How often
have we, you and I, looked at our lives, and thought...I don't
deserve you Jesus Christ. I know that I truly don't deserve the pain
that you went through for me on Calvary. I certainly am not anything
to die over, or have you and I ever said...I am still alive why
should you die, and die for me. I personally have asked myself this
question so, so, many times, sometimes with tears in my eyes. And at
other times with the feeling of knowing that I will just never
measure up,or be anywhere close enough to talk to you Lord, God and
Savior, let alone look at you Jesus Christ. It took me a long time to
understand all these feelings, but we should feel bad, we should feel
guilt. As to our sinful nature. Because sin is dirty, and due to our
sinful nature we are all as filthy rags. Never and I mean never, able
to cleanse our self of it. Yes beloved, our sin is the ultimate
dirtying that no amount of soap and water could ever remove, could
ever take away, we are stained with the sin of our lives.

But should
we continue to feel not good enough ??? Well I believe the first
thing to remember and know is that Jesus Christ took all of our sin,
He took it all with Him, and bearing the penalty of "all"
sin of "all" man, He took it to the Cross, and nailed it
through Himself, and into the wood of the cross. And By His Stripes
We Are Healed !!!!!!! So we are to never forget that we are sinners,
we are to always know that we can never stop sinning, but we are to
know that we must forget our confessed sins, and know that Jesus
Christ has Willing removed them, and has done so by His Ultimate
Sacrifice on the Cross at Calvary

So what is
our current state ? Let us look to the Bible to see these truths.
(Isiah Chapter 64 Verse 6 King James Version) says. "But we are
all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness's are as filthy
rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the
wind, have taken us away.” Yes this is all of our beginning, but
there is a person that cleans us white as snow. This person is The
Son Of God, who has Saved us from our own sin, which the penalty for
it is death, but eternal Life through Jesus Christ. This we see in
(Romans Chapter 6 Verse 23 King James Version) “For the wages of
sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus
Christ our Lord..”

So
what must we do to be forgive of our sins, and receive this eternal
life through Jesus Christ ? We see this answer in (Acts Chapter 3
Verses 19 Through 21 English Standard Version) “Repent
therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that
times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that
he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus, whom heaven must
receive until the time for restoring all the things about which God
spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets long ago.”

Now that we
have repented, and turned to God, how do we know that He, Jesus
Christ, has taken our sin to the Cross with Him, for us. ? The Bible
tells us the answer in, (I Peter Chapter 3 Verse 18 English Standard
Version) “For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for
the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in
the flesh but made alive in the spirit.” And this is not the only
verse that has to speak of this in the Bible. Let us look and see
that Jesus died for our sins as told in (I Corinthians Chapter 15
Verses 3 And 4 English Standard Version) “For I delivered to you as
of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our
sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he
was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.”

We now know
without a doubt that Jesus died, and died on the Cross, at Calvary,
and has come for all the sins of all mankind. So now what shall we do
? Once again the Bible, which is the Word of God, and lamp to our
feet, as we see in (Psalm Chapter 119 Verse 105 King James Version)
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
explains to us just what to do. As the Bible tells us next, we must
turn from our sin, as we read in, (Romans Chapter 6 Verse 12 English
Standard Version) “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body,
to make you obey its passions.”

God has
Given all to send His Son to the Earth, and knowing that He would die
for our sin, the sin of His Own Creation. Jesus Christ has given His
life in the fulfillment of Scripture to save us all from a eternal
life in hell, due to our sin, and this because, we cannot save
ourselves, and this is why we need a Savior, and that Savior is Jesus
Christ. The Ultimate Sacrifice of Life, to cleanse, and to do
so...for no other reason than because of the love that He has for us
all.

So from this
point on, while trying to walk in a less sinful way of life, what
should we do now ???

Once more
the text book of Life, the Bible gives us this truth, through the
scriptures, as we see in (Psalm Chapter 145 Verse 3 English Standard
Version) “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his
greatness is unsearchable.” We should worship and give Praise , and
Thanks, to our Lord, God and Savior. (Psalm Chapter 148 Verses 1 And
2 English Standard Version) ”Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from
the heavens; praise him in the heights! Praise him, all his angels;
praise him, all his hosts!”

We really
need to remember all of what Jesus has done for us, and all of the
Love that Jesus has for us. This day, and every day alive on this
Earth is a gift from God...as if He has not done enough for us
already...We need to thank Him for each new day. We need to remember
what (Isiah Chapter 53 Verses 3 Through 5 King James Version) has
told us, it says: “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of
sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces
from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath
borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him
stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our
transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement
of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.”
